London. The interest In the gen
eral election becomes more and more
absorbing and the probability is in
creasing that the king will be the
proof of the whole struggle.
At present the radicals are more
royalists than the kingj It Is poss'
ble that in February they may re
vert to the attitude of their ances
tors of the Cromwellian age. Rut for
banning or blessing Edward VII is
emerging as the "man on horseback."
upon whose decision the resolution
of the crisis depends. The radicals
are all swear'ng by the patriot king.
The Tories are swearing at him. for
expressing regret in his speech from
the throne that the supplies voted by
his faithful commons were rendered
unavailable by the rejection of the
budget.
But If after the election the king
refuses to mnko every liberal agent
to the tune of 600, a peer of the realm
for the purpose of overaweing the
house of lords, then the boot will be
on the other leg and the Tor es will
bless and the radicals curse their sov
ereign lord and king.
Topsy-Turvlners in Politics.
For' the moment the radicals are
nl royalists. A pamphlet has Just
been sent to press containing the sev
eral counts upon which the 350 peers
who rejected the budget ought to be
attainted as rebels and traitors to the
crvn. To refuse supplies is the last
stop but one before armel rebellion.
The peers usurped the authority of
the commons in order to refuse the
king supplies which he needed for the
government and defense of his realm.
They encroached upon .the royal pre
rogative of dissolving parliament;
they exposed to the world the- im
portance of the crown; they broke
down the balance wheel of the con
stitution and generally committed
enousth treason to Justify their exe
cution at Tower II 11. The king's
scepter is the trencheon of democracy.
Without the king the commons are
powerless, face to face with the
usurpation of the peers. His minis
ters are at present contemplating re
signing office if after the election he
should refuse to make 500 brand new
peers, whose votes would enable them
to pass their budget, to restore the !
absolute control of finance to the
commons and to abolish the veto of
the peers.
Wholesale Creation of Pots.
There is every probability that the
king will refuse -such a
creation of peers unless there Is a
'veritable landslide in the rad'cal dl-1
! rection. In that case Mr. Balfour
would come in and there would be.
another general election hard on the
1 heels of the first, in which the con
j servatives would appeal to the con
j situencies to resist radical attempts
to dictate to our gracious sovereign
lord and k ng.
Fortunately there is no need for
so disastrous an annual climax. There
Is only one-way out of the present
impasse, and that is for the king to
exercise hi- ancient, traditional pre
rogative to refuse to Issue writs of
summons with contempt, and to fill
up the vacancy by summon ng to the
house of lords good men and true,
who will he simply lords for the du
ration of this parliament. It Is ob
jected that this is a strong step to
take. The answer Is that we are
fighting a revolut on wh'oh is taking
far greater liberty with constitution
al usuage. .It is necessary to fight
revolution by revolution. ou can
not make omelette without breaking
eggs, and we shall never get out of
the present impasse unless the king
can be made to use his Derogative to
make the will of the commons pre

representing every shade of official,

trial and medical opinions, were ex
amined and their evidence goes to
show that the employment of Indians
.'n the colony Is widespread, and not
confined, as was generally supposed,
to a few special Industries.
Tho chief objections to Indian Im
migration were that the conditions It
Implied were servile and had a de
moralizing influence on national life;
that the Indians displaced the native
of the colony, and even white labor;
and. lastly, that their competition
placed a fictitious value on land
the colony.

London. At this moment, when the

refused because of its revolutionary

that early In the summer the reason
given for Its threatened rejection was
not its Socialism, but that It did not
provide sufficient money for Dread

cry that the Tories were relying for
their Justification.
When this cry was taken from them
they were not long In finding another.
The real truth is that the budget was
thrown out because it was the only

a prospect of a return to office for
